You know you've been there: your monthly ClassPass credits start piling up as your goal of hitting three Pilates classes and a cold plunge per week gets sidelined by life, and now you’re sitting on a mountain of expiring credits. Well, now you can treat yourself to a little fun instead of a grueling string of workouts.

ClassPass just announced a massive expansion into entertainment and family attractions nationwide. You can now swap those credits for a day of pure, unadulterated joy at spots like Six Flags, SeaWorld and the Kennedy Space Center. Thanks to a new partnership with entertainment and travel commerce platform EBG, the app is trading in sweat equity for rollercoasters, penguins and space shuttles.

The new ClassPass options are great for a solo thrill, a quirky date night or a way to burn off your kids' endless weekend energy. You can redeem credits for ticket bundles (1, 2 or 4 tickets) at plenty of heavy hitters across the U.S.

Some of the standout spots include:

  • Bay Area Discovery Museum
  • Georgia Aquarium
  • Golf N Stuff
  • Family Fun Park in Norwalk, CA
  • Kennedy Space Center
  • LEGOLAND Florida
  • Phoenix Zoo
  • San Antonio Zoo
  • SeaWorld San Diego
  • Sesame Place San Diego
  • Six Flags Magic Mountain

The new feature is a sensible step for ClassPass as the app saw a surge in users spending credits on movies when they introduced a partnership with several movie theater chains earlier this year.

And it's not just about using up credits. For some people, wellness is a workout and a spa visit, but for others it's screaming your head off on a roller coaster—who says thrills and chills aren't a fantastic form of breathwork? And dodging sea spray at an aquarium just might count as hydrotherapy.

So if your credits are burning a hole in your digital pocket, or you need to let it all hang out after an intense HIIT workout, remember that you can treat yourself to a day out at a theme park.
